This thread is just an lol. To those of you who don't want TES:O, you aren't being held at gunpoint and being forced to buy and play it, which means you should let those MMO people do their stuffs while you do your Elder Scrolls RPG stuffs. And I do remember seeing a Morrowind thread stating that Morrowind couldn't be multiplayer, and it was stickied so I have come to the conclusion that it was a much asked question back in the day. That being said, TES:O could be a good thing for the series. Perhaps some of the MMO-genre people will be like, "Hey, let's try Skyrim/Whatever the new thing is!" after playing the online version which means a bigger community and a chance of more (great) mod devs.
